The WaPo clearly does not understand the meaning of "trolling". This is not Canada trolling, this is Canada making a deliberate decision to move away from partnerships with the US. This is Canada refusing to be bullied. It's a sad day for America, but it's leaders are too dumb to realize that.
The Jeff Bezos team at the Washington Post are accusing Canada of "trolling" Trump by signing a trade deal with China.
They say we will regret it.
Fuck off Washington.
There, I said it.

"If great powers abandon even the pretense of rules & values for the unhindered pursuit of their power & interest, the gains from transactionalism will become harder to replicate" -- Carney's speech at Davos is an extended criticism of the damage Trump is doing (though he's not mentioning his name)

“A pastor here is also director of the field office for ICE… so someone teaching people about God is out there overseeing ICE agents. How dare you.”

"Trade is not fundamentally about competition. It's not us versus Canada. It's us and Canada." It's really about cooperation. And if the United States won't cooperate reliably with Canada, we shouldn't be surprised when Canada looks for new friends to cooperate with. And Americans miss out.

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after ICE agents opened fire.
I don’t need to be a use-of-force expert to say this plainly: she did not need to be shot.
And no fair investigation is coming from the same system that wanted this confrontation in the first place.

They Didn’t Come to Protect Minneapolis. They Came to Provoke It.
A woman is dead after an encounter with ICE agents in Minneapolis, and the rush to justify it tells us everything about where this country is headed — toward provocation, federalized force, and invest

If you're not outraged that a six year old child is now without a biological parent because of Donald Trump's racially-motivated mission to militarize our neighborhoods with the deployment of bands of hateful thugs, then you are simply a bad person.

We've put together a frame-by-frame analysis of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good, at the same time that Vice President JD Vance held a press conference stressing that what you're going to see in this video did not happen.
